The EU parliament just got robbed at gunpoint for the second time in a twelve month period.

The BBC is saying that were no signs of forced entry.

Two men, one of them armed, held up the post office in the parliament building on Friday, and reportedly got away with at least 8,000 euros (6,750).

Police have started an investigation into what is said to be the third major breach of security in two years.

The raid happened as European leaders met for an energy summit at a Council building, just hundreds of metres away from parliament.
